comment moderation
Online discussion gatekeeping
Comment moderation is the process of reviewing and filtering user-submitted comments on websites, social media, or forums before or after they appear publicly.
Moderators—human or automated—remove spam, hate speech, harassment, or off-topic content.
The site uses AI for comment moderation, but controversial posts still get flagged for human review.
